Where do i setup my guide grabber ? (1 Viewer)

Well, I just moved to TVServer and this is how I have my system working...
In MP Config I make sure the WebEPBGrabber runs regularly, in the very same way as with the old TVengine. The result of the daily runs is an updated tvguide.xml file.
In the TVserver Config I point to this file, see PlugIns->XMLTV. Don't forget to enable it.
So it is a combination of both. The "regular" webepg does the grabbing from the internet, and TVserver reads the file and populates the TVGuide in MP.
Hope this helps!
